CURRENT MISSION

Ride a Velibe in le Tour de France

ABOUT ME

I'm a jack of some trades, master of few... It wasn't until I was 16 that I left the East Coast of the USA, and it was only last year that I traveled west of Philadelphia, so I'm trying to catch up a bit on my traveling. This profile needs a lot of work, so for now you'll have to just trust that I'm enjoyable!

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing too coherent, yet. You can size a book up by it's cover.. but give the jury plenty of time reach a final judgement.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing.. maybe hosting soon, once I find a new apartment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just one so far, but I have slept on couches before. Tents, hammocks, towels, floors, roofs, gardens, and Fiat 500s too, for that matter

Anything really.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Rode a three person tandem over the Golden Gate Bridge and through Presidio Park while the sun set!

-Canoeing across Pt. Judith pond at night when the bio-luminescent algae was in full bloom. It leaves a trail of green glowing water

I'll remember more when I talk to you.. but I also need more - that's where you come in!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: How to get your feet dirty, guitar/drums (if you're as good or worse than me), English
Learn: guitar/drums (if you're as good or better than me), French, cooking! (I'm a fine sous-chef, but I need some help overall. I effectively eat vegetarian but I gotta get out of my pasta rut).
